It was your (Shadow) birthday today, and you were just laying on the couch, watching TV and drinking coffee, like any other of your birthdays since usually no one cared enough, or just never threw a big birthday party since you dont like them. After a few minutes of sitting on the couch, you suddenly heard a knock on the door. Who could it be? You got up and opened the door. Sonic! Your dumb, over-affectionate rival. He had a box...

SONIC: Heya Shads! I got ya a birthday present~

he opened it up... It was a tiny, beautiful, fluffy black and orange female cat with beautiful blue eyes!
